Frommer's "Where better to experience a city on the water than on a boat-hotel moored permanently to a dock on the IJ waterway northwest of Centraal Station?" Full review
i
Be sure to ask for a room with a view on the water, to avoid the uninspiring quay.
Lonely Planet "Five minutes’ walk from Centraal Station, this floating hotel is usually populated by dazed, Europe-in-four-days bus groups and packs of Brit boys/girls celebrating bucks’/hens’ nights." Full review
Time Out "Convenient for Centraal Station, the docklands and hops across to Noord, this a good bet if you're looking for good, clean accommodation with the odd frill, like free in-house movies." Full review

"Kids may enjoy the experience of staying on a boat, but the property is more popular with value-minded couples and groups." Full review

DK Eyewitness "This hotel and “cultural embassy” offers everything from one- to five-star accommodation, and all kinds of arts events."
Rough Guide "Situated in the up-and-coming Oosterdok district, this former workers’ hostel has been renovated to become Amsterdam’s coolest hotel."
Time Out "This former youth prison has been re-invented as one- to five-star accommodation complete with a new 'cultural embasssy'." Full review
